Whole Wheat White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies {with Sea Salt}

My favorite cookie has always been white chocolate macadamia nut but this recipe takes the obsession to a whole new level. Plus, it’s made with wheat flour so they’re practically health food. You’re welcome, Santa.

These cookies are about as simple as they come: 30 minutes from start to finish and one bowl required, meaning minimal effort and clean up. That’s my kind of cookie.

I can’t help but suggest these are the perfect cookie to leave behind for Santa because they’re slightly heartier thanks to whole wheat pastry flour and are a nice break from the usual chocolate chip. Plus, the berries make them festive. I believe I’ve made my case.

Oh man these were so good, for breakfast even! (Sshhh, I won’t tell.) Buttery, slightly crisp, moist, white chocolate chips in every bite with an occasional bright, tart note from the cranberries. Friends, this is cookie simplicity at its finest.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, remove and let set on sheet for 2-3 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. These are excellent served immediately or the next day and would also keep well in the freezer for several weeks.

I love this recipe… I have been making something similar for years, it is my partners favourite holiday cookie. I am going to try your version, it is definitely healthier and it sounds like it will probably taste better to boot! My version I substitute brandy for the vanilla- I will have to keep that or I might have a revolution on my hands ;-)

For light industrial use, reciprocating compressors are the
more popular option. Online distributors for air compressor replacement parts will categorize the
parts numbers according to brand name of the unit as well as the part’s designation. If you have a task that needs doing far from the nearest outlet, you should seriously consider a gas powered device to operate your pneumatic tools.

Just finished making these. I made a few changes because I wanted to see if I could make them work vegan (???). Not sure if my ingredients are as such but anyway, I used earth balance spread and a flax egg. I also accidentally used whole wheat flour and they turned out just fine! Because of the size of my cookie scooper, I got 34 cookies weighing in at a tiny 64 calories each. Score! I did have the opposite problem of one baker, though… mine taste a little too salty at first. Oh well! Now I know for next time! Thanks for the recipe! Can’t wait for some other holiday recipes to pop up! :)

these cookies are so good! I’ve made these so many times and my family and I just can’t get enough. every time I make them I add something different to the recipe. some things i’ve found to be delicious add-ons are: walnuts, shaved coconut, dried cherries, and extra vanilla extract!

This is exactly the recipe I was looking for… without the wheat! Would you recommend replacing the whole wheat with Gluten free flour mix (your recipe for instance? or any other kind)
Thank you very much!
Always a pleasure following you.

Delicious. I made these gluten free (Pamela’s Artisan Blend) and dark chocolate since I had no white chocolate on hand. They were spectacular and polished off within hours. Yet another winnser from the minimalist baker.

Oh my goodness! Please help! I just made these and after 10 minutes went to check on them the cookies all pooled together into one mess filling my cookie sheet in a thin layer of cookie! I have no idea what happened. Any thoughts??? I have never seen this before.

I think it was the butter being too cold – straight from the fridge. :( I’ll try and again! Whats funny is that people still ate it! It looked liked a sheet of lace with the bits of chocolate and cranberries and people devoured it! They just broke it off like bark. haha
